“We are shifting out of the search and rescue phase and starting to move to the recovery element,” Haverkos said. “That’s where the operations center and the EMA is crucially trying to put together plans like debris management, plans like donations management, plans like federal and state assistance for individuals and for the municipalities.”
The Butler County EMA team also helped the American Red Cross build two of the five shelters and he said one was at capacity Tuesday night.
“We’re seeing the populations at the shelters steady, not increasing, which is usually a good sign,” Haverkos said.
